Why Did Wives Give their Husbands Additional Wives?

There is no trolling. I did asked myself what is neccesary for polygyny. One man, at least two women and......their collective belief their life will be better if they stay together. If only one decides their interest would be served better out of that particular marriage, then by by polygyny.
Not true
There are men in polygyny that don’t have wives in the same state, much less the same house.
Leaving the house doesn’t equal leaving the marriage.

How did you get idea I was talking about leaving housing? Only topic was leaving marriage.
 
So it only happens when at least all three sides consider it good.
Let’s go back to your original statement.
It isn’t true.
Men sometimes live in polygyny even if one of the wives don’t consider it good.

No, if she stays it only means she considers staying better than leaving. Then real question is how much more worse situation has to become before leaving.

You keep stating your opinions as facts.
May you never have the actual experience.

They are facts, pure and simple.

Person can either stay or leave relationship. There is no third option.

All relationships, including love, business, parent/child can be broken because they become bad enough.

I do know case of daughter cutting of her mother.

I agree, but that’s not what you said.
I’m done feeding this beast.
 
I have stayed consistent.
Staying consistent is only good if you are consistent in light of the truth. In His prayer Jesus prayed saying, "Your word is truth." You have repeatedly argued your logic and common sense are better than the truth. Chage would therefore be most advantageous.
 
You didn't. People can leave marriage even if law forbid leaving.

Scripture is clear that Christian marriage is a permanent for life relationship.

If one is just going to do what one wants to do then it really does not matter what scriptures say then, right?
